saxon

Suitable for rack and pinion, crayford and dual speed focuser.

Remove unwanted movements during focusing using the saxon Electric Focuser Controller.

Focusing is smooth and precise, just the way it should be.

Designed to be used with the saxon 127mm Apochromatic FCD100 Air-Spaced ED Triplet Refractor Telescope for astrophotography.

The saxon 0.7x Focal Reducer for FCD100 Triplets will reduce the focal ratio of the saxon127mm FCD100 Refractor Telescope from F/7.5 to F/5.25, providing a wider field of view, brighter images, and shorter exposure times. 

No saxon FCD100 telescope astrophotgraphy setup is complete without the saxon 0.7x Focal Reducer for FCD100 Triplets.
